      Hi All,

      I’ve tried installing MM with both the automated script and the manual way, and in both cases it fails at the same point.

      I’ve attached to this the log of npm install when trying to install manually, can anyone point me in the right direction for how to troubleshoot/fix this?

      Thanks!

        You are running very old versions of npm and node. I am on my smartphone and cannot run a search on the forum for you, but you should be able to find similar posts with resolution

          Thanks! I did apt-get install npm, so I assumed it would install the latest version. I can update node though, thanks!

            So trying to update NodeJS has shown something else I saw during the automated script:

            W: Failed to fetch http://repo.mysql.com/apt/debian/dists/wheezy/InRelease Unable to find expected entry ‘mysql-apt-config/binary-armhf/Packages’ in Release file (Wrong sources.list entry or malformed file)

            E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
            Error executing command, exiting

            Seems like this is an issue on the other end, as opposed to on mine?
